In this motorcycle pneumatic tire, a tread portion is composed of a central rubber and a side rubber having a lower modulus than the central rubber and has a structure in which the central rubber and the side rubber are sequentially laminated in both tire widthwise side portions, with the side rubber extending to a tire width-direction inner side further than a point at ¼ of a tread width TW on a tire width-direction outer side from a tire equator. A tire ground-contact surface has a tread pattern that includes plural inclined grooves | 2020-05-14 |
